Sustainable mobility for a better future

In March 2020, KINTO launched KINTO One, a new offer providing all the benefits of driving a new car, without having to own one.

KINTO One users pay a monthly fee for an all-inclusive leasing service. And, with a direct connection of the app to the car, users receive rewards and bonuses for driving smart.

A partnership to drive change

KINTO is always looking to be at the forefront in driving positive change and meeting customer needs.

Customer feedback showed that KINTO One users wanted to use their cars more efficiently, and to split the cost of ownership. In direct response to this feedback, KINTO and Greater Than developed a free and easy solution for KINTO One customers to share their cars between friends and family.
